If you answer “no” to any of the questions above, it may be time to consider abandoning your idea.

That’s not to say that the idea is bad, or that it’s not worth pursuing, but if you aren’t excited by your idea, if the idea isn’t going to improve lives or teach you something, if you’re unlikely to regret abandoning the idea or if you’re inclined to sell it if the opportunity ever presented itself, you likely have better things to spend your time on. So get moving.
